Living On The Streets

Lessons worth learning
Interested in the stories everyone has
Verge of escaping the violence
Inside a different circle
Never know a single response beforehand
Guessing could be dangerous

On the many adventures
Not thanking my lucky stars enough

The night life was something else
Hadn't a chance but to trust that
Everything would work out

Sobriety was as big a challenge as
Taking care of my own wellbeing
Respect was the only thing I sought
Everyone knows who's been there
Easy as it is to believe
That I sat down with the prostitutes and watched
Soap operas after they've given themselves a fix
